Fear: A Novel of World War I by Gabriel Chevallier

5.0

The best of a recent read of a quartet of autobiographical novels of World War I: Through the Wheat: A Novel of the World War I Marines by Thomas Boyd; Her Privates We by Frederic Manning; and Storm of Steel by Ernst Junger. Whether French, American, British, or German these soldiers of "The War to End All Wars" went through hell. Gabriele Chevallier served as a "poilus", an infantry soldier, and writes of all the horrors of this terrible conflict. A fascinating and informative read.
